Post, the new platform, has a major problem.
It’s trying to build a monopoly on news payments. It looks like it’s aiming to be the “Uber of news.”

Do we really want to do that?? (No. )

New from me, on Substack.

Let’s skip Post. It’s not going to be good for users, news outlets, or democracy. Mastodon is a better choice.

If you're new to Mastodon I'd totally ignore people telling you how to run your own account.

Crosspost from other sites all you want. Post whatever you want. It's your account.

Too much clubhouse gatekeeping.

#Newcomers to #Mastodon keep in mind when you see people telling you how easy things are and telling you how to do things, someone on Mastodon just ran a poll with hundreds of responses and 1/3 of the people said they ran their own email server.

So take it all with a grain of salt.

The world is buckling bc of a few megalomaniac men who were either denied love or have a warped view of what love is.

Love is the only way out of this. Kindness is the antidote to hate. Don’t let hate change you. Vote. Breathe. Drink water. Honor each other. Hate is untenable.

I've been excited about people's energy around #KamalaHarris. It has kept me checking #threads, #mastodon, and #bluesky. Likewise, I've been boosting posts in support. I have also donated and am looking for ways to help out #Harris2024 #IRL.

As a member of the #TwitterMigration, I have not been on #Twitter in months. Is there any value in trying to help #Harris' campaign with retweets on #Twitter?

A tweet with a video of Vice President Harris. The text above the video states:

Before I became vice president and before I was elected as U.S. senator, I was the attorney general of California. Before that, I was a prosecutor who took on predators, fraudsters, and cheaters.

So I know Donald Trump’s type.

In this campaign, I will put my record against his. — A tweet with a video of Vice President Harris.
